The Boomerang Pokies page for Cricket Star
Australian punters can open the session page for Cricket Star pokie apart from this catalogue.
Microgaming released Cricket Star as a high-volatility pokie, and Boomerang Pokies files it for Here2Win Casino players in Australia. Published return is 96.29%. Punters in the Gold Coast still see ordinary short-run swings.
What this pokie is
Boomerang Pokies sends you out and back: read Cricket Star here, play it at Here2Win Casino, return to the same URL if you want the figures again. The name is the catalogue, not a mechanic.
Boomerang Pokies names the game and stops there. Cricket Star still runs at Here2Win Casino, stake in A$, after the button on boomerangpokies.com.
Microgaming is the studio on the Cricket Star card. Everything else is how you choose to play it at Here2Win Casino. If the session feels fast, that matches a high-volatility pokie. Walk away on your own clock.
108 Heroes Water Margin shares a studio with this card, and so does 108 Heroes Multiplier Fortunes. Both are Microgaming.
The studio behind it
If you only needed the maker, it is Microgaming. Here2Win Casino does not rebadge the game. The provider page is the clean list.

More from Microgaming
Who it suits
A high-volatility pokie suits a short session with a small A$ stake. The balance tends to move in lumps, so Cricket Star is a poor place to try to win a loss back.
How a session behaves
Coming back to Cricket Star later does not make it due. Keep the A$ stake where you left the rule.
The maths does not soften because the catalogue page is long. Walk away while the stake in A$ is still a choice.
Stars is the theme printed here, and 9 Burning Stars uses that same tag.
Questions
Where do I open Cricket Star if I am in Australia?
Cricket Star is in the Boomerang Pokies list for Australia, and the session itself runs at Here2Win Casino. Use the play button rather than hunting the game by a different name.
Is the RTP of Cricket Star on this page?
96.29% is the RTP printed for Cricket Star. Boomerang Pokies does not adjust that number and does not promise it over one visit to Here2Win Casino.
How volatile is Cricket Star?
Cricket Star is marked high-volatility. On a high-volatility pokie the balance usually moves in lumps, so the stake in A$ matters more than the theme.
What provider is behind Cricket Star?
Microgaming is the studio named on the Cricket Star card. Boomerang Pokies groups the rest of that studio on the provider page.
Where does the A$ stake actually go?
Boomerang Pokies is a catalogue. The stake in A$ is placed at Here2Win Casino after you follow the play button. This page does not hold a balance.
Can I open Cricket Star on a phone?
Yes. The play button on boomerangpokies.com is the same on a phone as on a desktop. The session then runs at Here2Win Casino, and the stake is still in A$.
What currency is the stake on Cricket Star?
At Here2Win Casino the stake for Australian players is in A$. Boomerang Pokies does not convert it and does not print a minimum, because the minimum is set inside the game.
Can I try Cricket Star here without an account?
No. Boomerang Pokies does not embed a demo of Cricket Star. The button opens the pokie at Here2Win Casino. Any practice mode, if one exists, is inside that account, not on boomerangpokies.com.
Why is there no star rating for Cricket Star?
No score is printed on purpose. A star would be a house opinion. The page sticks to the studio, the published RTP when the card has one, and the volatility label.
Can Cricket Star be due for a win?
No. Cricket Star does not store the night you had in the Gold Coast, and it is not due. A published RTP describes a very long run of spins, not the next one.
How old do I have to be to play Cricket Star?
The page is written for adults in Australia. Gambling can harm. Stop when the session stops being a choice.
Where does the click on Cricket Star go?
Boomerang Pokies records the page you were on and sends you to Here2Win Casino with Australia already on the trail.
How many Microgaming pokies are in this catalogue?
Use the provider link under the title. That list is the same studio, not a random mix, and each title opens at Here2Win Casino.
Does it matter that I am in the Gold Coast?
No. the Gold Coast is named because readers are there. It is not a setting inside Cricket Star, and it does not change the RTP.
Will I see a bonus figure for Cricket Star here?
No figure is invented here. If Here2Win Casino shows a welcome offer, it shows it inside the account, with its own terms. Read them there before you opt in.
Is Cricket Star a club or pub pokie?
No. Cricket Star on Boomerang Pokies is an online pokie opened at Here2Win Casino. It is not a machine on a club floor and it does not carry a local sticker.
When should I close Cricket Star?
Set an A$ limit and a clock before the first spin, then close the game when either one is reached. Cricket Star will not close itself.
Why does Cricket Star have a pros and cons list?
It splits what the card publishes from what Boomerang Pokies refuses to invent. A printed RTP is listed because it is a source figure. A missing hit rate is named as a limit, not filled in.
What should I read before I open Cricket Star?
Start with the short answer under the title, then the fact list. Both should agree: studio Microgaming, and RTP only when the card has one. The pros and cons repeat that split in plain lines.
Will a shorter name still open Cricket Star?
This page is only Cricket Star. The play button follows that name, not a shorter guess.
What is the maximum win on Cricket Star?
A count of free spins and a bonus-buy price are also absent. Those numbers stay off the page.
Why does Cricket Star have no feature list?
Nothing was tagged on Cricket Star. A bonus round, a buy price, and a jackpot figure stay unwritten.
Stake and the cashier
Leaving for Here2Win Casino is the payment step. Boomerang Pokies does not hold a POLi or PayID balance in between.
The A$ stake is chosen inside Cricket Star at Here2Win Casino. A catalogue can name PayID and still not run PayID.
How you open it
- Open Cricket Star from the play button. The click stays on boomerangpokies.com, then Here2Win Casino loads the pokie.
- Set the stake in A$ before the reels move. A smaller stake just makes a high-volatility pokie last longer.
- Stop on a clock you set in the Gold Coast, not when the pokie 'looks due'.
